Nestled within hills and only 10 minutes northwest of Downtown LA, Silver Lake has been known to nurture musicians, independent artists, and writers. The neighborhood is peppered with iconic architecture by mid-century modernists such as John Lautner, Rudolph Schindler and Richard Neutra. The reservoir, although currently being drained, is an oasis within the city for people and nature. Alongside the neighborhood staples, Sunset Boulevard continues to flourish as a springboard for new shops and cafés. Although it's just the tip of the iceberg (there's a different experience here for everyone), here's a roundup of some of our favorite spots.
Floral elegance
Clare V. and Silver Lake go way back. Rooted and made here in LA since 2008, Clare Vivier's leather goods started locally with bags and clutches. Blending LA and Parisian femininty, it's grown into apparel and a growing line of accessories. In 2012, they opened this flagship store right here on home turf.
